Love for Ted Ginn

SaintGnome · 10-29-2017, 06:13 PM

He deserves a thread like this. I like many wasn't exactly wowed by this pick-up either. I thought maybe we get a good punt return or two out of him and that he was basically a one hit wonder burner WR but he has really matured as an all around receiver. Week after week it's been fun watching him catch the balls near the line of scrimmage, balls that look like they are going no-where and watching him juke or dodge to get maximum yardage. Frankly, I would have never thought I'd ever think of him as clutch, but he has been exactly that. I never thought this was more than a one year deal, but I could see him sticking around for a few years and really contributing.

I don't think we hear from Snead much because Ginn starts over Snead. I'm impressed.

Yes didn’t expect much from Ginn and he has done nothing but impress me....

Brandon who?

I'm not surprised at all. Ginn had good years in Carolina - it only stood to reason he'd do at least as well and I figured he'd do better because Drew Brees.

He can go deep and runs more/better routes than Cooks - nothing against Cooks, he's young. I didn't figure we'd miss a beat and I did figure we might even be better off.

So far, so good.

I was 100% behind the signing of Ted Ginn Jr. All he needed is what all WRs need. Drew Brees.

I was for Ginn but I thought he would be no more than a decoy. The guy is producing at the same level as Brandin Cooks when targeted.

Even better when you consider Ginn's YAC, way better than Cooks...
